God sees us with the eyes of a Father. He sees our defects, errors and blemishes. But He also sees our value.

Where we might think of sin as slip-ups or missteps, God views sin as a godless attitude that leads to godless action.

God has forgiven you; you'd be wise to do the same

Forgiveness is choosing to see your offender with different eyes.

Were studying in Philippians, and Im trying to figure out this passage, Paul says I want to know Christ. What does that mean? See, hes fascinated by Jesus. I think thats a desire Id like to have on my heart, to know more about Jesus.

It seems to me that the prayers of the Bible can be distilled into one. The result is a simple, easy-to-remember, pocket-sized prayer: Father, you are good. I need help. They need help. Thank you. In Jesus' name, amen. Let this prayer punctuate your day.

I wanted to talk about how grace in and of itself changes us. It changes the way we treat other people, the way we view our lives, the way we treat our purpose and our eternal identity.
